#9

Jaejoong reached for the phone to call for breakfast. Kim got up and left for the bathroom for a bath. He entered shortly after her, and they bathed together. As Kim was towelling Jaejoong's hair dry, he grabbed her butt, and carried her to the room with her legs wrapped around him. They got dressed and the breakfast came just when they were ready.

Kim fed Jaejoong and herself, with him lying on her lap, and playing with her dress. They left the hotel around 11.30a.m., and called the guys to check where they were. They were already shopping in town with their manager. So they told them that they'll meet them for dinner. They took a cab to Kim's house first, and Kim drove to Orchard. They watched "Here On Earth".

It's amazing how private cinemas can be. Considering that it was pitch dark, and they got the most back row lovers' seats. Passer-bys would probably think that they were Siamese twins. They were so wrapped up around each other during the show! Jaejoong had his arm around Kim throughout the entire show, and she rested her head on his shoulder. And the best thing is, they kissed whenever, there was a kissing scene. Short kisses. But enough to make others stare at them.

After the movie, they went shopping. Kim didn't really enjoy buying clothes for herself, but she loved to pick clothes for other people. Most of the time it would be Jaejoong trying clothes and Kim waiting for him outside the changing rooms. Once he saw her yawn when he came out of a changing room, and he asked her to go over to take a closer look. When the person-in-charge wasn't looking, he pulled her into the cubicle, closed the door, and gave Kim a long, long, long kiss. It was like a kiss of life. Or energy rather. Cos Kim was awake suddenly, full of energy. She slipped out and pretended to comment that the shirt wasn't his color, before walking out to wait again. They left the store, giggling, as it seemed that the owner hadn't realize anything at all.

Then they passed a shop with really beautiful dresses. One baby blue dress caught Kim's eye. It was bare-back halter-neck, and there was a long slit down the cleavage area. It was knee-length, and Kim took an instant liking to it. She knows that it'll look nice on her. But she didn't say anything.

Jaejoong: Is there anything you like baby? Cos if there is I can get it for you.

Jaejoong offered generously.

Kim: No honey…Nothing …Why don't we go get something for your parents? Some local foodstuff maybe. They like barbecued pork right? Let's go get some then.

Kim knew that clothes in that shop cost a bomb, and she didn't want Jaejoong to spent so much on her. Considering that they were just starting artistes, and he had just bought her such an expensive ring. Kim wrapped her arm around his arm, and tugged him away from the shop, when he started looking inside to figure out what exactly caught Kim's eye. Knowing that he knows her taste in clothes too well, Kim knew he would know what she wanted, so she had to get him away ASAP.

They left the shop and went to get some barbecued pork for his parents. Kim also bought a bottle of health wine for his parents. Then they left to meet the guys for dinner. They met the guys at Heeren. They didn't really know what they wanted to eat.

Kim: What would you like?

Micky: Why don't you decide for us? Since you stay here, you should know better what's nice.

Kim looked at the 5 of them. Then she remembered that they hadn't tried the sushi here before. So Kim asked them if they would like to have that. They said yes. Kim brought them upstairs and went straight to Sakae Sushi. When they sat down in front of the roller belt, they realized that what Kim meant was this - raw fish, rice rolls, fried vegetables, etc.

As soon as Kim settled down, she took a look at the belt, and saw her favorite Tamago sushi. Kim took a plate. Then she searched again for the raw fish rolls. Kim looked over at the guys. They were still unsure of what to try.

Kim: What don't you guys like? Tell me I'll choose for you.

Max: I don't take raw meat.

Micky: I don't like spicy stuff.

Xiah: I take anything...

U-Know: I don't like raw meat too...

Jaejoong: I…

Before Jaejoong could finish his comment, but Kim interrupted him.

Kim: OK, I know.

Jaejoong: But…

Jaejong tried to cut in. But Kim had already reached over and grabbed a plate of potato croquet for him, a plate of California sushi for Max and U-Know, a plate of tuna mayonnaise sushi for Micky, and a plate of salmon sushi for Xiah.

Max: How come you didn't hear hyung out?

Max asked curiously.

Micky: Yeah, and you just started picking out food.

Kim looked over at jaejoong's slightly hurt face.

Kim: Guys, don't you think I'll know what he likes, and what he doesn't like already? Is there still a need to ask? It WOULD DEFINITELY be a SHAME if I still dunno.

Kim turned and faced Jaejoong.

Kim: Don't you agree my dear?

Jaejoong seemed rather pleased with Kim's answer, and so were the guys, so they proceeded on to try the food that she had picked for them. As she looked at their satisfied look, Kim knew that they were enjoying the food. So she started on her Tamago sushi, separating the rice from the Tamago, stacking them up, before eating the rice. Kim's eyes stayed peeled on the conveyor belt, looking out for the fried bean curd, the potato salad, the vegetable tempura, and more raw fish sushi. Basically there wasn't much spicy food around that was not suitable for Micky to eat. But what Kim had picked had a lot of raw fish, so she placed those plates nearer to her and further from Max and U-Know so that they would not unknowingly take them to eat.

Kim also ordered some ebi tempura, and udon for them to try. Kim tried an ebi tempura, but left the rest for them, as they seemed to enjoy tempura quite a lot. Jaejoong was a lot like Kim when it comes to eating, they both don't like tuna, but they both love the raw fish. But not the raw clams, cos they stink too much. Later when they were almost finishing, Kim ordered tempura ice cream for each of them. So she watched them enjoy the ice cream as she sipped on my hot green tea.

Max: Why didn't you order one for yourself? I thought you love ice cream?

Max asked, seeing Kim being the only one without the ice cream.

Kim: Nah, I don't really feel like eating the entire ice cream by myself.

Micky: I see…hee hee…anyway, I'm sure SOMEONE will feed me some of HIS.

Micky giggled looking at Jaejoong.

Kim turned her head over to take a look at Jaejoong. He was so engrossed in trying to eat the ice cream before it all melts from the hot tempura skin that he had not heard what they were saying.

Jaejoong: What?? What did you say Micky?

Jaejoong asked blurly.

Micky looked at Jaejoong's ice cream, and threw a look at Kim. Kim smiled, as Jaejoong was still rather confused about what Micky was trying to tell him. After several attempts, U-Know finally couldn't stand it anymore, and he pulled Jaejoong over and whispered into his ear. A look of final realization showed on his face, and he looked down apologetically at his quarter-finished ice cream. Then he shifted his seat closer to Kim's clumsily, pulling the plate closer too.

Jaejoong scooped a large scoop of the ice cream with the tempura, and leaned closer to Kim.

Jaejoong: Come, let me feed you.. Ah…

Jaejoong said, opening his mouth and gesturing for Kim to follow suit.

It was quite a funny sight, cos the rest of the guys started laughing. Kim was on the verge of bursting out laughing, but Jaejoong was so close to her with the spoon and all, Kim couldn't just burst out in front of him.

Xiah: Come on…just eat it. I'm sure you don't wanna disappoint him. It's already right in front of your mouth, just open it, and in it goes!

Jaejoong apparently got his hint and pushed the spoon even closer to Kim's mouth, while grabbing her to stop her from moving away. Facing the inability to escape from his clutches, and the danger of the ice cream melting and dripping onto her, Kim opened my mouth. And Jaejoong immediately shoved it in, and he kissed her straight away! Kim was so shocked by his action, but the rest of the guys were laughing away so cheekily! Luckily for Kim, there weren't many people in the restaurant, and they were sitting in a rather deserted corner. Otherwise Kim would have been so embarrassed! And Jaejoong didn't stop kissing her till all the ice cream had melted and went down their throats. Then he let go of her and cheekily said.

Jaejoong: Is it tasty?

Frankly speaking, Kim was rather embarrassed, but it does feel very nice when the cold melted ice cream flowed down her throat as they kissed. It was quite a nice sensation.

Kim: Erm…it's…

Jaejoong: VERY TASTY right? I knew it!

Jaejoong exclaimed, nudging at the guys. The rest were just shaking their heads, pretending to look disapproving at his remark.

Jaejoong: Hey what do you guys mean by this...

Jaejoong started shaking his head too.

Jaejoong: She didn't say it wasn't good OK. Anyway YOUR opinions don't matter! Just HERS will be ENOUGH! It IS GOOD right baby?

Kim looked at the guys, they kept shaking their heads, hinting to her to say no. Then she looked at Jaejoong, he had moved closer to Kim and grabbed her around the shoulders.

Kim: Well…it is not bad…I must say…quite tasty…I mean…the ice cream…

Kim replied, looking down and sipping at her tea at the same time.

Jaejoong: See guys, it's good!

Jaejoong echoed, and he gave her a peck on her cheek.

Max: Hey you can't "pressure" the "judge" into making a decision that is in your favor like that! Unfair "trial"!

Jaejoong stuck out his tongue and made a gesture at the guys.

Jaejoong: You can't blame me for making the "judge" like me more than you. It's just my cute and adorable face, must be too charming for the "judge" to resist!

Jaejoong joked, then he gave Kim a hug.

Kim: OK guys, enough's said. Can we not do this again, you're embarrassing yourselves! And me too! Let's just let me get the bill and leave OK? In peace. Can you shake on it?

Then Kim got up, pulled the guys up, and gestured for Jaejoong to follow them. He followed close behind Kim, putting his arms around her waist, and his head rested on her shoulder. Kim managed to usher them to the cashier, where she paid for the meal. After some "resistance" from the guys, as they had wanted to pay for it, but Kim gave the cashier my card before they could do anything. After settling the bill, they left for more shopping at the Annex. They shopped till 10p.m., and Jaejoong told the guys that they had to leave first to do something, and asked the guys to go back to the hotel themselves. Getting the hint, they left the 2 of them alone.

Jaejoong took Kim's hand, and took her to the cinema. He asked her to buy the tickets for the midnight show "Whatever it takes", while he excused himself to visit the restroom. After buying the tickets, Kim sat down at the café, and waited for Jaejoong. He didn't come back after 30 minutes, and Kim was getting worried about him. So she stood up and walked towards the restrooms. But after standing there for 15 minutes, he still didn't come out. So Kim asked one of the guys who had just came out from the restroom if there was anyone inside there anymore. He said no. Kim was REALLY worried. Where did Jaejoong go? Kim went to each level's restrooms and asked the restroom users if there were anyone inside that looked like Jaejoong, but he wasn't in any of them. By now Kim was turning frantic and desperate.

Kim's thoughts: Jaejoong didn't carry his mobile with him, and doesn't have a phone card to contact me with, no coins, and not much Singapore money. Where is he?

Thinking that maybe Jaejong might have gone back to the cinema so Kim rushed up to the cinema. But he wasn't there either. Kim was so lost. She didn't know what to do anymore. Kim collapsed down on the chair at the café, and placed her face in her hands. She was on the verge on breaking down.

Jaejoong: What's wrong baby?

Kim looked up. It was Jaejoong! Kim stood up and rushed forward to give him a bear hug.

Kim: Oh thank God you're OK! Where did you go? I was so worried. Why were you gone for so long? It's almost an hour already!

Jaejoong: Oh I went to get this.

Kim let go and stood back to see what Jaejoong got. He raised it up slightly and Kim realized what he had gone to get for so long. It was the dress that Kim was interested in! He had gone back all the way to get it for her. And even when he didn't see it before, he knew exactly what she liked. He just knows her so well! Kim couldn't believe her eyes.

Kim: What? You mean you went all the way back to that shop to get this for me? I didn't even say that I liked it. And how come you know that it's definitely this one?

Jaejoong: Well... It's just the connection that we have I guess, I know you don't want me to spend too much on you. But some things just cannot be dispensed on. Just treat it like my birthday gift to you.

Jaejoong replied, holding Kim's face in his hands, wiping away the tears coming out from her eyes.

Jaejoong: Now if you're gonna start crying again here, everyone's gonna think that I'm bullying you, so stop it OK?

Kim: …OK…You're too nice to me Jaejoong…I love you.

Kim wiped the tears from her eyes, and gave him a hug.

Jaejoong: Ok let's go for the movie now. It's almost time already!

Jaejoong said, and placed his arm around Kim;s shoulder, ushering her into the cinema.
